The book by hydrobiologist Anastasia Glazunova tells about the vast, yet almost invisible realm of zooplankton - tiny creatures living in the water column. Majestic jellyfish and lightning-fast arrows, shimmering ctenophores and sculpted radiolarians, fearsome sea angels and their prey - sea devils... And of course, the well-known amoeba and paramecium! On the pages of the book, you will find stories about these and many other types of plankton, as well as those associated with them: from gigantic blue whales to... hydrobiologist scientists!
The book is adorned with magical watercolors by Tatiana Plovetskaya and photographs of zooplankton taken through a microscope.
The book will introduce children to the surrounding world, spark interest in scientific research, and open a window to an entire world that, though invisible to the eye, matters greatly for our planet.
